The thing is I have phoned him twice to chase/progress the inlet manifold, and on both occasions he said that the worse thing I could do is keep phoning him and that it would actually delay the job if I kept bothering him

Ithought he was joking.....but 29 days later I am not so sure

Also , I cant afford to upset him as unfortunatelly he is the ONLY person that can live map my car........not good

Tried phoning Grove Garage few times to see if Mark knew what was happening - no answer on Wed of Thur...did leave a couple of messages on Grove answerphone service yesterday....not heard anything yet
